Component locale-config (org.jboss.seam.international.localeConfig) does not set the locale things in JSF context if JSF is not initialized before Seam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-4401 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4401 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.2.0.GA, 2.2.1.CR1 Environment: WebSphere v7.0.0.5 (That is bundled with JSF-RI 1.2_07+) Reporter: Denis Forveille Assignee: Marek Novotny Using the localeConfig component by declaring <international:locale-config default-locale="fr" supported-locales="fr en" /> in component.xml does not work as-is. It works if JSF is initialized BEFORE Seam by adding the lines <listener><listener-class>com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener</listener-class></listener> before <listener><listener-class>org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamListener</listener-class></listener> in web.xml If the JSF listener is not there, JSF is not initialized when Seam bootstraps its application scope components, and so the faces application context is not available In the case of the localeConfig component, line 136 of org.jboss.seam.international.LocaleConfig throws an IllegalStateException that is silently swallowed (!) when JSF is not initialized Doing so the the default locales and supported locales are not defined to JSF thanks to the test in line 58. IMHO, at a minimum this should be stated in the doc that the component works only if JSF is initialized before seam, or somehting should be changed in the code to set the JSF locale things when JSF application context is initialized org.jboss.seam.international.LocaleConfig lines around 136: private Application getApplication() { try { ApplicationFactory factory = (ApplicationFactory) FactoryFinder .getFactory(FactoryFinder.APPLICATION_FACTORY); return factory.getApplication(); } catch (IllegalStateException e) { // just in case, for units and the like // if we can't do it, it just wan't meant to be return null; } } around line 58: @Create public void initLocaleConfig() { Application application = getApplication(); if (application == null) { return; }
